Question about i-tec USB-C 4K Triple Dock 85W
Good day With my docking station, some connections do not work correctly. With my laptop, the USB ports and the DP output do not work (but the HDMI output does). I have already connected another, stronger (120 watt) power supply and nothing changed with the laptop. I then connected a colleague's mobile phone via the USB-C to test it and the USB ports of the docking station and the HDMI output worked, but the DP did not work again. I have downloaded the driver package. Can you help me?
The higher power of the power supply cannot be passed on by the docking station because the DC/DC converter in the docking station is limiting.
In my case, switching to the 85W docking station helped because my original docking station was too weak to drive the computer's aged Li battery. Accordingly, USB and other ports failed, and finally the docking station broke. With the more powerful docking station, this worked well for 3 months. Now similar problems are starting again. The Li-battery has probably become even more power hungry in the meantime. The next thing I'm going to do is not change to 120W, but replace the battery - the keyboard is bulging and the touchpad is failing. In a word, the battery is starting to become dangerous.
Speaking of HDMI/DP, I had read somewhere that the two cannot be operated simultaneously from the docking station.
